YM778.TV Chapter 293 The Limit Of Being Absurd
[Everi\'s POV]
"Who the f*ck are you, Michael?" I couldn\'t control myself anymore. Absurd my foot, this guy was beyond unbelievable.
"Oh, come on, darling. This is just the start," he spoke as he killed another man without even moving a step,
"Isn\'t that right, kids?"
And those kids who previously couldn\'t even move a step by themselves, the ones whom the scientists deemed as \'Failed Experiments\' miraculously gained their abilities back as they started walking around like nothing happened.
And what was even more ridiculous was that those fragile as glass kids were beating the shit out of the guards with their weak hands. Laughing and cheering as they moved in sync.
"ONE!! TWO!! THREE!! PUNCH!!!" Michael coordinated those dozens of kids as they punched those soldiers at their weakest point, bringing them to their knees.
"KICK!!!" Michael shouted again as they fell to the ground.
"KICK AGAIN!!" And finally on his command, those kids killed those guards with their laughter echoing throughout the hall.
It wasn\'t that the guards were weak or the kids were strong. But the guards couldn\'t even make a move… despite moving really fast, those guards were not able to do anything against those snail speed kids.
"YAYYY!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! SQUISH!!! SQUISH!!! SQUISH!!!\'\' The children shouted in sync as they jumped on the puddles of blood. Their laughter sent chills down my spine as I couldn\'t help but take a step back.
-Bang! Bang! Bang!
Once again, from a distance, another group of men started shooting…and once again, they missed all their shots. Those snipers that could kill anyone from a kilometer away without making a mistake were unable to shoot even one of the dozen targets in front of them from 50 meters away.
"LET\'S GOOOO!!!" One of the kids shouted and the others followed. The group of men were horrified as they saw those little monsters coming at them. And even though the distance was decreasing, not one of the shots hit. It was only a few moments before they, too, died at those children\'s hands.
"Man, I love children. Don\'t you too?" Michael asked as he looked at me with an equally evil smile before moving towards the headquarters of this entire base.
\'Just… what kind of monster is he… is he a God or something?\' I couldn\'t help but pity the scientists in the headquarters behind this one.
Previously, we had moved on to the 3rd floor since there was nothing on the 4th floor.
Irene moved and killed all the people there before we saved the dozens of kids. The rest were either taken above for more experimentation or were outright dead.
After that, we came to the 2nd floor, where the main headquarters was, and now after killing all the guards here too, we finally reached the end of the facility. To the main lab where all the heinous experiments usually take place.
"Hey! Stop daydreaming. Let\'s go!" Micheal was more excited than the kids here. He was all smiles as I walked behind him, reaching the area where the entire area was more or less empty, with the scientists cooped up in the safety glass room at the corner.
"Kids! ATTACK!!!" Michael shouted with a smile… though on a deeper look, his smile had a certain disgust to it. His eyes were looking at those scientists… as if they were being read like a book. He had that look…
\'Is it possible?! That he… can read people\'s lives or something?\' This thought, once entered my brain, failed to move out as it would make sense why he never really asked anyone anything and just moved forward. Why did he kill some of the guards on the last floor inflicting more pain on them than the others? And why did he spare me or treat me with such friendliness? Is it because my mother said so…? No. The hatred he has for everyone here is real… then he can really read my mind… after all… I hate this facility too. It took everything from me and I couldn\'t do anything about it… barely keeping myself alive here for all these years.
"You don\'t know who you\'re messing with!!" shouted one of the scientists on the other side of the glass room before he choked on his own breath and started suffocating.
"Pardon, I couldn\'t catch what you were saying. Can you repeat it please?" Micheal asked politely as he saw the kids reaching the gate, which couldn\'t be unlocked without the leader\'s permission and opening it without any problem whatsoever.
"ATTACK NOW!!!" A certain voice came from behind as a group of assassins unleashed their attacks on Michael with all their might.
-Slash!
Only to be killed, a moment later, on the spot by Irene… with a wooden branch.
"Who were they?" Michael asked me without much expression on his face. He didn\'t even bother to turn around as he kept looking at those kids killing everyone in the \'safe\' room.
"People on the same level as me… tasked to protect the place," I spoke with a slight tremble in my voice. Will he kill me after knowing that? Though… seeing no change in his expression, I sighed in relief before I saw those kids coming out of the room.
Michael looked around at the other kids who were sleeping on the experimental beds before he did whatever he did last time. He just looked at them one by one…
And they started healing at a rapid rate, soon waking up by themselves. Their eyes confused as they looked in fear at the surroundings, before their eyes turned to Michael.
"You are getting out of this hell. Come with me," he spoke as he looked to the side of the facility. After giving a bit of thought, he turned to Irene, who threw him the stick she had with her.
"Close your ears," he commanded as every kid here plugged their ears. And somehow, before I knew it, I was also covering my ears along with Irene.
Micheal then took a stance as he adjusted the stick…
-Slash!
-BOOOOOMMMM!!!!!
And the entire roof was slashed apart as the top flew high up in the air in a single slash. What was even more surprising was that not even a single scratch came at any of us. I couldn\'t see the full extent of his slash… but I am pretty sure he held back with that.
And despite that… a path was opened up to the top… from 50 meters down the earth.
"And children. That\'s how you open a path in case you are lost or don\'t know how to," Michael spoke with a chuckle while the kids were looking at him in awe and admiration.
"No, you don\'t. Stop teaching the kids absurd things," I couldn\'t help but shout at Michael in irritation. There is gotta be a limit to this.
"Pfft- HahahaHahaha" Irene, on the other hand, started laughing out loud. She looked at Michael and then at me before laughing out again as she held her stomach.
"Hey it\'s fin-" Michael was about to say something before he turned his head upwards, towards the sky. His eyes turned more serious than before. He looked at the sky for a few seconds as Irene, previously laughing, now was looking at Michael with a bit of worry.
"What is it?" Irene asked, but Michael didn\'t answer. He just stood there without making any statements, as he seemed to be analyzing something. And after a moment of silence,
"Irene. Everi. Take the kids with you towards the village. I will catch up with you guys in a moment," he spoke as he looked at us with an uncertain look. Irene could sense that something was wrong, so she tried to ask again,
"Hey… is everything alright?" She was worried about him. I wanted to know what could have possibly made that monster so serious. I don\'t think it has anything to do with the facility… all the people who have connections with this facility… they are monsters too, to be honest, but… not as absurd as him. If they had even half the abilities he has, they would have eaten out the other bases long ago.
\'So… what exactly is going on to make him… make that expression?\' I gulped. It couldn\'t be that someone as absurd as he was coming here, could be? Right… right?
"It\'s okay. Just take those kids with you. I will be there," Michael spoke with a light voice. It lacked that charm and confidence with which he spoke before, making Irene more worried about him than before.
Though she just looked at him. I don\'t exactly know the chemistry between the two, but it seemed like she was feeling helpless… Perhaps the difference between what she could handle and what Michael was going to handle was too much? Not that surprising, to be honest.
"Just promise me that you will come back… this world is… I don\'t think I can survive here without you," Irene said, making me blush a little. It felt like two lovers parting ways here…
"I promise," Michael said before looking at her with a certain smile.
"!!" And then my eyes widened a little as I saw her… k-k-k-kissing?!!! She was really going at it with her tongue as she kissed Michael for a few seconds before leaving him.
"I will wait for you," she spoke in the most melodious voice she could before she turned to the children, who were observing them with confusion.
"Let\'s go, kids. Big brother has some work to do… I will take you all back to a safe place," she spoke before turning to me,"Everi. Help me out here." I could only nod at her as I was still embarrassed by what she did before… How can some people be so bold? Really this world…
Though on the other note… Just what exactly was going on with Michael… because he was still serious even after that kiss. His eyes focused at the sky above.
